Happy New Year, friends and readers! I hope you all enjoyed the holidays and are entering this new year -- and decade -- with a clear vision and focus on your goals! I spent some time mulling over my Word of the Year, considering last year's WOTY and how it applied, and thinking through some goals I'd like to articulate. Truth be told, progress on all of that was a little stilted due to some unexpected family things, so I'm still … [Read more...]

February 27, 2017 by · 1 Comment
Good Monday to you, friends! Can you believe February is winding down so quickly?? I spent the weekend putting my laundry room back together (reveal coming SOON!) and moving on into our powder room that was about ten years overdue for an update. Oh and I also worked all day Friday and again on Sunday at my new part-time job -- #whew. I'll share more about that soon, too. Anyhow, I thought we'd kick off the week with an I Can't Resist that … [Read more...]

Monday, Monday... that alarm clock was tough to handle this morning and I'm not feeling so hot, but -- onward! I had a full weekend of Country Living Fair, college football, house cleaning, church, and porch decorating and then a Legacy board meeting last night ... whew! We finally have a touch a chill in the air (hope it lasts!?!) so it's easy to embrace the wonderful that is fall at last. I hit the Fair on Friday as promised and it did NOT … [Read more...]

Hi there, friends! I hope you enjoyed a great weekend - we had wonderful weather here, so I was on a spring cleaning binge. I was hoping to tackle my front porch but we're still getting lots of pollen here so it's not quite time. However, it's never too soon to plan so I'll be sharing some inspiration for my spring porch makeover later this week along with some upcoming furniture projects. But today I wanted to share my booth refresh that I … [Read more...]

Well, THAT title is a mouthful, isn't it!? Happy Friday, y'all! Today I'm sharing a fun new project that has me swooning and ready to deck the halls... well, sorta.

A Peek at My Booth…

Hi everyone! I hope you all took the time to get out and VOTE yesterday! Here in ATL, our schools were closed for the day so I got a bonus day at home to get some things done after voting... and if you follow me on Instagram, you saw I ended up shoe shopping, too. Oops. ;-) #sorrynotsorry I ended up with some to. die. for. smokey taupe wedges. Thank goodness for a BFF that was available by text to seal the deal. :) And how did we ever shop … [Read more...]

Shopping Around: Linden
September 18, 2014 by · 1 Comment
If you follow me on Instagram, you know I got started on a furniture painting project last week... and wouldn't you know it, I ran out of my clear wax halfway through. I wasn't comfortable switching to a different wax half way though a project. So I had to track down a local Annie Sloan stockist and that was not easy, even here in Atlanta! This turned into one of those "happy accidents" because in finding an Annie Sloan stockist I … [Read more...]
